Unable To Load ProDOS



HALT THE PRESSES!

I _finally_ got GS/OS to load! Apparently, my disk drive only likes disks
formatted with PC Exchange. Disks that were created with DiskCopy are
refused by the drive. I managed to copy all the files to my Mac's hard
drive, reformat the disk in the Mac Finder, and copy the files back. When
I started up the IIgs with it, it worked!

Which is the _exact_opposite_ of what most people say. The ProDOS disks
_I_ make with PC Exchange work rather than fail like most people say, and
the ProDOS disks created with DiskCopy fail rather than work like most
people say.

I should have known. Everything is opposite on my computers. Some programs
crash rather than work, HyperCard does let me open stacks full size that
are larger than the first window, Netscape says it's out of memory when I
give it more, etc....

Now I just have to get all of the disk images I downloaded for my emulator
and put them onto 800K disks... except the DOS 3.3 ones. Where can I find
DOS 3.3 Launcher???
